The here and now... and what and why

Complacency is a trap. At least that’s what I was thinking when I up and left the comfort of a Yankee prep school gig, where I taught music, amongst other things, for 28 years. There was also that life long career as a composer, musician and artist.

First, it was a year in St. Thomas, USVI, working as a reporter and shooting photography and then, a year in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico.Time passed.More time passed and a year back in the Athens of America followed by a hasty return to Oaxaca where it is all happening.A couple of years in San Sebastian Etla and now, just down the road in San Pablo Etla. Life is good.

International Jazz Day!

I come from the John Cage School of Jazz..... you know, just open your ears and it's all music, it's all jazz, I don't need no more... but if you do, check out this killer performance by Snarky Puppy. The keyboard player is..... I cried with joy and awe. Give it up for these players.

I am really just passing this on from one of my former students, film director and all around genius Randy Moore. Gracias!
